Mpougatsa is the type of fyllo pastry used to make this type of pie, which is filled usually with cream or cheese. It is a typical breakfast here in thessaloniki and you can find it in every bakery literally every hundred meters in town. I know it is not the healthiest breakfast and obviously not made by me, although now I’m thinking about it! But i thought it wouldn’t harm me to have mpougatsa for breakfast once in six months time! My sister, however, will never forgive me for not adding a glass of cocoa milk in the photo to complete thessaloniki’s typical breakfast, but mpougatsa is not going to be extinct here, next time the cocoa milk will be there. I just have to wait for six months… 🙂
